The Sierra Club Sustainable Consumption Committee Mission: To encourage people to think about the environmental impacts of their consumption choices by providing specific information.
SOME SOLUTIONS:
- Eat more vegetables, fruit, and grains and less meat. Look for meat that is produced in the least harmful way—grass fed, organic, antibiotic- and hormone-free.
- Buy organic whenever you can.
- Buy from small, local sources whenever you can.
We encourage all of you to lead discussions with family, friends, and community organizations about this critical topic.
